The Holocaust Museum

Humanities 1301
Description
• The purpose of the Holocaust exhibit is to educate others and pursue
the mission to make people aware of the dangers which
prejudice, hatred, and violence by society brought about during the
Holocaust.
• The pieces of art represented in this museum are forever a part of
history.
• These artifacts, pictures, quotes, and films presented in the exhibit
give you a piece of what it was like during that time period.
• The art pieces are from the years 1933- 1945 which is the time
period the Holocaust occurred.
• This exhibit is about expanding your knowledge on the
holocaust, and also providing you the opportunity to put yourself in
that specific time period.
• This piece of art is a authentic uniform that
was forced upon the Jewish individuals to be
worn through out the concentration camps.
• This picture was presented in the museum and it consist of 4 male boys
from the Holocaust that were taking in for experimental work and had their
sex organs removed. This is just a glimpse of the disgusting and horrifying
things that Hitler and his soldiers did to innocent people!
Analysis
• The Museum was very well organized and
extremely easy to follow along! There is also a
number that you can call and through each
artifact it will explain in depth to you, about
that particular piece.
• The most important point of the works is to
give a visual image of what it was literally
like, and most of the works are the authentic
pieces.
• This exhibit is a train that was used to
transport the Jews to the concentration camps.
• This picture is of a statement made by Jewish a individual verbalizing their
experiences with the trains taking the Jews to the concentration camps.
The picture below is another statement made by an individual that
experienced this tragic time.
• This authentic Danish fishing boat was used in 1943 by Christians hiding Jews
below deck in their cargo, transporting them to a safe place.
• These Christians that risk their life's, to do this saved over 7,200 Jewish Individuals.
Interpretation
• As I experienced the Holocaust Museum for
the first time, the exhibits in this museum
express tragic, awareness, and disturbing
artifacts from the Holocaust.
• The work that resides in this museum is things
that I have never had the opportunity to
experience.
Evaluation
• Each individual quality in each of these pieces
is a true success in my opinion because it
represents our history and helps us as
individuals to better understand the Holocaust.
• All of the pieces of art are a hundred percent
original. In my opinion they are
original, because they are artifacts from that
time period when all the horrific things were
occurring.
Judgment
• In visiting this museum, It really took the
Holocaust to a whole new level for me. As I
walked through the first half of the museum I
just wanted to break down and cry. In my
opinion, I think everyone should take the time
to experience the Holocaust Museum at least
once, because it educates you on the horrifying
time period, but also makes you put things into
a whole new perspective when seeing this
human tragedy.
